You may not live in Los Angeles, but I’m sure you’ve seen your share of “Team Aniston/Jolie; Paris/Nicole; Nick/Jessica” shirts to last a lifetime. Well, if that’s the case, then please close your eyes and try your best to skip over my post for the rest of the day! 
Long, long ago… back in those early days of the wedding plans, Mr. Lemon passed someone wearing one of these TEAM shirts and wished aloud for our own versions of them for the wedding party. So… skip forward to last week and add some stencils, white paint and some spiffy shirts from Jiffyshirts and his wish was granted and taken to Las Vegas and Palm Springs for the weekend.
My shirts: Navy American Apparel (#2102) jersey shirts
His shirts: Bright Orange (yes… it was by request) Hanes Beefy T’s
My girls loved them… and pledged to wear them around representing TEAM Lemon all around town. I’m sure there was a big grumble when Mr. Lemon revealed his trademark ORANGE shirts, but heck, all guys need an extra gym shirt and it got a nice laugh too. They were more than willing to wear them to the rehearsal… especially since we’ve got a 3-hour break between our rehearsal and dinner that night. Could make for some fun photos! 
As for the “how-to” for this project, I went back to my stencil-making ways and did the same thing for these t-shirts that I did for my other bridesmaid shirts. This stencil took a bit more time to cut out, but other than that, the process was just as easy! Only one more fabric printing task left (the OOT bags) and I can pack away my X-Acto knife and stencil materials for another day.

Great Idea! Might have to steal it.
Totally cute! I might have to do a set myself. Thanks for sharing!
(oops, group photo navy blue shirt not totally blurred out)
i did team kymberli shirts for my bridesmaids too! but i did it on the back of a design i had in the front…
what a cool idea! how about one w/ the couple’s name combined? too bad my FI’s name and my name don’t make up a fun combo name. otherwise, i’d love to make a brangelina type shirt!
What a cute project!
I wanted to let you know that you blurred out your last name in the close-up but not in the picture your your bridesmaids.
[...] the first glimpse of weekly craftiness from me, ironically on my work desk. You see, I’m recycling an old idea and putting it to new use. That’s what happens when you need prizes for a work picnic STAT! [...]
[...] on the ROSE tank tops can be found here, and the TEAM t-shirts [...]

About Me: My FI and I met online, but we like to tell people that we met at a "cookie shop" which is the technical location of our first encounter. He proposed exactly 1 year, 1 month and 6 days after our first date (it's the only part of his proposal speech that I remember), and we're planning long-distance from Los Angeles for a July wedding in my hometown of Monterey, CA. I have a passion for all things "cool, cute and quirky" and I enjoy video games, reading blogs (WeddingBee, trashy celeb, consumer & political) and crafting in my spare time, if I have any!
